Font Converters

Inspiration

Font delivery breaks in real projects because formats, browser support, and CSS setup are inconsistent. This exists to remove that friction and make “use this font” a 2-minute task.

What it does

Converts fonts between common formats, supports batch conversion, generates @font-face CSS, and offers subsetting to reduce file size for faster web loading.

How I built it

A simple web UI on top of a conversion pipeline that handles format parsing/export, optional subsetting, and CSS generation, packaged as a fast, no-account workflow.

Challenges I ran into

Format quirks across converters, preserving glyph coverage, keeping output consistent, and making subsetting safe without breaking languages/symbols.

Accomplishments that I'm proud of

An end-to-end workflow (convert + subset + CSS) that’s fast, works in the browser, and stays accessible without accounts or paywalls.

What I learned

Most users don’t want “a converter”; they want a production-ready result: web formats, correct CSS, and smaller files without extra steps.

What's next for Font Converters

More format-path coverage, better subsetting controls (language presets), improved previews/testing, and tighter performance and privacy guarantees.
